With all respect David..you say you moved here in 2006..thats fine..You chose to move to a town with literally hundreds of new houses littered on newly built housing estates. You chose to move to a town with a massively expanding population. You chose to move to a town with huge out of town retail complexes being sprung up...Thats fine. I moved here 18 years ago because I WANTED to live in a small market town with a villagey feel to it which had a sense of local community and thats what I got
The main gripe we have is that this has been literally torn away from us and certainly the democratic wishes of those of us living here have been ignored.
Yes Stratford is a nice place compared to others, but I can assure you NOT as nice as it was..And before you think i'm some OAP that doesn't want any change, i'm far from that not even 45 yet!!!
